-------------------------------------

             Summary: Clarify behavior wrt If-Match header
                 Key: ODATA-670
                 URL: https://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/ODATA-670
             Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: OData Protocol 
    Affects Versions: V4.0_OS
         Environment: [Proposed]
            Reporter: Hubert Heijkers
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: V4.0_ERRATA01


Section 9.1.6 of protocol incorrectly implies that a request containing an If-Match header should return a 304 Not Modified in the case the ETag specified in the If-Match header matches, which is incorrect.
Clarify that if the If-Match header is used on a GET request and the content has changed that the server MUST return a 412 Precondition Failed and otherwise process the request as normal.
